ANALYSIS NOTATION
The service discovery and analysis notations describe the service-oriented software assets that
participate in the analysis solution proposition process along with the various operations that act
on them. These two symbol groups are utilized for recording the analysis process, illustrating
service transformations, describing their invariance, and presenting the final analysis diagram.
ANALYSIS ASSET NOTATION. There are three types of service-oriented assets that take part in
analysis diagrams. The first category depicts indivisible entities that are not made up of internal
assets; these are denoted as atomic services. The second consists of composite services that
can encompass smaller composite services and/or atomic services. The third class represents
service clusters that conceptually group entities based on affiliation, relationship, and business or
technology context. Exhibit 8.1 illustrates these three asset types.
